Democracy has been the dream of brilliant thinkers from centuries, starting from Aristotle the Greek philosopher. But it came into reality from 1775 A.D. And now America being the first Democratic Nation and India being the Largest Democracy in the world, it has not been sucessful in leading the nations into peace and progress. Instead it has resulted in domination, spread of violence war and arrogance. And in the Indian context, it is an exploitative and corrupt system of governance. It lacks good leaders. And in practice lacks ethical values and standerds, democratical principles and protection of human rights and dignity. It is a weapon of exploitation in the hands of the natorious politicians, the powerful, the rich, capitalists, criminals and the list may not end. Who is responsible for such status of Democracy in India. Is the system itself or the Indian population is not mature enough to elect and run a democratical government true to its standards. Are there philosohers
